In China they presented new pmp called Shenzhen Thomso D886. This is somewhat unusual because a PMP by itself is a hybrid, but it has something that makes it special, and it is not a camera or a GPS navigator built in, but its a scanner. As to your specifications nothing beyond usual, we have a… QVGA screen of 2.4 “262k colors, plays MPEG-4, WAV, MP3, WMA and WAV, has an FM radio tuner, voice recorder, e-books reader, and a slot for memory SD and MMC (support up to 2GB), 8 equalizers, in addition to the JPEG scanner. Its price is $ 31, but you will have to buy at least 1000 units.

The Winfly Development has managed to develop a PMP with some good qualities, but its design is not the best we have seen.
